A book is pushed off the edge of a table. At what point during the fall will the potential and kinetic energy be equal?

Chemistry
1 answer:
vfiekz [6]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

KE = PE at half the table Height:

Explanation

AT ANY POINT IN THE BOOK'S FALL,

TOTAL E = PE +KE

THE TOTAL E IS CONSTANT

Before the book is pushed off, the total energy is potential

TOT E=PE =MGH

BEFORE THE BOOK HITS THE GROUND, THE TOTAL E IS KINETIC

TOT=KE = MVXV/2

WHEN KE = PE

KE+PE =<u> MGH (STARTING ENERGY SINCE E IS CONSERVED)</u>

<u>OR PE+ PE = MGH</u>

<u>OR MGH' + MGH' =MGH</u>

<u>OR 2H' =</u>H

H' (NEW HEIGHT) =H/2

State Hund's rule.
loris [4]

Answer:

C. The lowest-energy electron configuration of an atom has the maximum number of unpaired electrons, all of which have the same spin, in degenerate orbitals.

Explanation:

The Hund's rule is used to place the electrons in the orbitals is it states that:

1. Every orbital in a sublevel is singly occupied before any orbital is doubly occupied;

2. All of the electrons in singly occupied orbitals have the same spin.

So, the electrons first seek to fill the orbitals with the same energy (degenerate orbitals) before paring with electrons in a half-filled orbital. Orbitals doubly occupied have greater energy, so the lowest-energy electron configuration of an atom has the maximum number of unpaired electrons, and for the second statement, they have the same spin.

The other alternatives are correct, but they're not observed by the Hund's rule.

2. The density of helium is 1.78 X 104 g/cm. What is this<br> density in Dg/um??
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

d=1.78\times 10^{-7}\ Dg/\mu m^3

Explanation:

Given,

The density of Helium is 1.78\times 10^4\ g/cm^3

We need to find the density in Dg/μm

We know that,

1 g = 10 dg

1 cm³ = 10¹² μm³

So,

d=1.78 \times 10^4\ g/cm^3\\\\=1.78 \times 10^4\times \dfrac{10\ dg}{10^{12}\ \mu m^3}\\\\=1.78\times 10^{-7}\ Dg/\mu m^3

So, the density of Helium is equal to 1.78\times 10^{-7}\ Dg/\mu m^3.

Why is the Atlantic Ocean growing larger, but the Pacific Ocean is growing smaller?
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

A.The Atlantic Ocean has more mid-ocean ridges than the Pacific Ocean so that keeps it growing larger.

Explanation:

Atlantic ocean is getting bigger because of the presence of spreading centers (divergent plate boundary). ... Pacific Ocean is getting smaller because the pacific plate is subducting along the subduction zones. Subduction zones are areas where old, dense plate subducts beneath a less dense plate.
